I just started taking my daughter to Dr. Howell and my only issue is I wish I could have found him sooner for my older three kids when they had braces. Walking through the front door you feel a positive atmosphere. During the consultation for a treatment plan for my daughter, they break down everything. Everything from the gear that will need to be installed, the process, the financial breakdown. Even the way Dr. Howell sat with us and educated us about what is going on and how it could be fixed. He is about providing the best experience for his patients.

I have used Howell Orthodontics for Invisalign for myself, braces for my son and an expander and now braces for my daughter. Dr. Howell and his staff are Amazing!! From the beginning they have been so friendly, welcoming and helpful. They go above and beyond in all they do! They have a fun and positive environment and are always doing challenges to engage their patients. They are super easy to work with and are always willing to fit us in when we have an issue. I am so grateful to have found a place that feels like family and not just a patient.

I had a great visit! This was my first time to this office. I came to get my retainer fit checked and when I called to get an appointment they got me in quickly. It was clean and comfortable when I came in and the team got me back fast. Dr was pleasant. Easy visit and I would come back again should I need any other things having to do with orthodontics. Friendly, kind staff.

The staff is very professional, explained everything to my son about getting braces, informed me (the parent) of my part financially and the different payment options, showed my son the plan with the braces and how they will help, explained their rewards program with my son (very nice that they have this extra incentive). The thing that I am most impressed with is they were able to get us in right away and they made plans to get him started right away. They didn't hold any information back and yet they presented their expectations. I look forward to continuing to work with them.

"I cannot recommend Dr. Howell and his team highly enough! From the moment I walked into the office, I was greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. Dr. Howell took the time to explain every step of the orthodontic process, ensuring we felt comfortable and informed.The treatment plan was clearly outlined, and I appreciated how they tailored it to fit our specific needs. The technology used was state-of-the-art.If you're looking for an orthodontist who is not only skilled but genuinely cares about their patients, you can't go wrong with Dr. Howell.

The whole team at Howell ortho. was great with my daughter. I loved how Wendy asked her questions about her teeth to make her feel like she was part of the decision making. Wendy showed her what was going to be placed in her mouth and how it worked. Dr. Howell was very pleasant and was great with my daughter. He also made my daughter feel included. Wendy also gave her a tour of the facility. The girl who installed the mouth expander was very nice and knew a lot about them since she had one when she was little. She answered all my questions and she was great with my daughter too. Explaining everything to her about what they were going to do, which made her feel more comfortable. I would highly recommend.

Went in one morning to chat about treatment options for my daughter and ended up leaving with braces (the SAME day!)! I did not expect this and yet the office staff checked our insurance, figured out what would still be owed and payment options. It was such a smooth and stress-free process. We left having a very positive experience and would recommend them to anyone considering using them as a provider.

Absolutely love the Howell orthodontics, they are absolutely amazing people. Our oldest daughter came here and has a beautiful smile. We are now in the process with our son and we can’t wait to enjoy them all again. If your child is in need of braces of any sort they are the best in the valley hands down. From the front desk to all the hygienist staff to Dr. Howell and Wendy that sets you up. They are all so amazing to work with.Thank you

Yesterday was our first visit to Howell Orthodontics - a consultation with scans and imaging etc. From the moment we walked in we felt like VIP’s! The office is beautiful with a fun alcove for the kids to play in. The service is fast, organized and streamlined. The staff is the very best part!! We ended up speaking with many of them and they are knowledgeable, helpful, positive and made you feel like part of the family! We now have a treatment plan and Dr. Howell (celebrity that he is) was amazing. Everyone goes above and beyond and truly cares. One thing I really appreciate about this office is that they explained things - I don’t know what I don’t know but I want to do right for my kiddos. Overall a wonderful experience and I look forward to the progress that will be made. Thanks Howell Orthodontics! (And thank you for sponsoring so much in the community as well!)

We just started our second child at Howell and have nothing but wonderful things to say about them. The quality and professionalism of the office and staff are excellent. The staff are so friendly and personable that both of my teens report back enjoying their visits. They are quick to get you in office if there is a problem they need to fix. They are also best at responding when you reach out to schedule. Compared to several other offices they got back to me the fastest and it was an individual from the office, not a bot. Thank you Howell and special shout out to Wendy for making the process for our most recent child so easy and welcoming!

I came to this office for Invisalign and I couldn’t be any happier with that decision. They were so helpful during the entire process and made it feel way easier. The front desk ladies always remembered my name, and the staff as a whole are super charming, very welcoming and really make it such a comfortable place. Dr Howell knows his stuff! Really nice and down to earth guy who is precise and neat about his job. Literally the only minor ehhh with this place is the privacy. People can see your “Aahhh” and “Awww” faces because it’s one big room, but you get over it. Absolutely recommend this place to anybody and have already pointed people this direction. Thanks Howell gang!

Dr. Howell is amazing! Very fun and inviting atmosphere! His staff always have a smile and are willing to answer any questions regarding treatment.

The first thing I noticed was the inviting waiting room. There is a small room for kids with video games and other activities.The front desk ladies are warm and welcoming. It's clear they are expecting you to walk in as they greeted my daughter by name.The doctor is so busy running from chair to chair but never to busy to answer all the questions I had and talk about my concerns. The assistants are fantastic and helped my daughter feel comfortable and explained the process to her.I'll add to this throughout our experience since it's going to be years of bracesHighly recommend.

Would recommend Howell Orthodontics again and again!!! We are currently with our FIFTH child in braces through them and we LOVE them! They are so fun and warm and help the kids with the anxiety of braces. They set the kids up for success! The hat pictures with Dr. Howell or caramel apple at the end are always a plus! And they are there for us with any and all problems that may arise. Best orthodontist in town!!!

They have the friendliest staff here! Everyone is so welcoming and they spent so much time with us during our consultation, answering every question we had. Dr. Howell is great with kids & everyone put my 9 year-old at ease when he was nervous for his appointment to get his braces on. It went so smoothly and it feels like everyone is cheering him on for this journey. Great experience!
